WNBA thread… 28.5 ain’t your pay cut

That already happened in ‘94. Fucking John Starks. Fucking 2-for-18 bullshit.

 

Horrid hoops
Execrable officiating
Advocacy announcing

A bummer of a way for an otherwise fun season to end.

 

Enjoy your day off - singular - before the start of the next professional basketball season!

 

New York Liberty were left to rot in Westchester under the Dolan ownership Nets ownership have done an amazing job resurrecting this franchise

 

Jesus, 1-for-19.

I saw JuJu Watkins go 6-for-32 in a game this season and thought no one can be that bad and keep on shooting. I was wrong.

 

The commissioner wearing a dress with the New York skyline was a nice touch.

The missed travel and awful foul call on Stewart was a ridiculous combo but the Lynx scoring 28 points in second half and OT…yuck. Collier moves nonstop on offense but was definitely exhausted in OT though I wish she still would have gotten some looks instead of Williams playing hero ball.

Kind of had 2010 Lakers-Celtics Game 7 vibes. Great drama, awful offensive basketball.

 

Ionescu had to keep shooting, she’s one of greatest shooters ever. Curry wasn’t great in 2016 Gm 7, you gotta keep shooting. Sabrina passed up a lot of looks at end.

McBride is who should have been getting looks.

Women’s stumble and fall more than I think they should and that affects the aesthetics.

 

Ionescu was a legendary flopper in college, guaranteed 5-10 times a game.

 

That's independent of her shooting.

 

What's the pay disparity and where is the money for the increased team salaries coming from if the league doesn't make money?

 

The real answer to becoming profitable is a longer season, but I wonder if the NBA wants the competition between the leagues. Or fit another 10 games or so into the season. Most years you don't have an Olympic break to contend with.

 

Well, they didn't have to take a month-long break for the Olympics. Rookies probably welcomed it, though.
